FREDERICK CHARLES HUNT, OF LONDON, ONTARIO, CANADA.'-

HEATING RADIATOR.

Application illed October 23, 1922. Serial No. 596,499.

To all 'whom t may concern.'

lBe it known that I, FREDERICK CHARLES HUNT, a subject of the King of Great Britain, and a resident of the city of London, in the county of Middlesex, in the Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Heating Radiators, of which the following is the specification. j j

My invention relates to improvements in heating radiators and the object of the' invention is to devise aI radiator for use in hot water or steam heating systems in which each section is constructed of an integral drawn tube of metalformed to shape. f

A further object zo kets A still further object is to devise a radiator which will effect a considerable saving in fuel consumption by increasing the radiation thereof, and another object is to devise a radiator which will be comparatively light in weight and will only' require a small quantity of hot water or steam with a correspondingly small piping system.

My invention consists of a radiator constructed and arranged all as hereinafter more particularly described and illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which:

Fig. 1 represents an elevational view of a radiator constructed according to my invention illustrating the same partly in sec-- tion to show the connections at the top and bottomof each section.

Fig. 2 is a side view thereof.

Fig. 3 is a horizontal section throughthe line 3--3 Figure 1, and

Fig. 4 is an enlarged Avertical sectional view through the upper portion of the radiator taken through theline .4-4 Figure 2.

Y Like characters of reference indicate c0r responding parts in the different views.

1 are the section's'of the radiator constructed of a drawn metal tube such as aluminum formed to sha e, their ends 2 being bent in towards eac other and suitably welded together. 3 are caps of inverted -shaped cross section adapted to extend over the upper and lower ends of each section in order to ive a finished appearance. 4 is a vertical wei Inserted into each section b for giving strength and rigidity thereto. 5 55 are nipples, each having the enlarged annular central portion 6 and the threaded ends 7 and 8. The enlarged annular ortion of each nipple is provided with radia ly disposed orifices 9 extending outwardly from 60 the interior thereof to the exterior.

he nipples 5 are inserted into the radi-- ator sections 1 so that the enlarged annular portion 6 is disposed internally thereof with the threaded ends 7 and 8 ally through the. orifices 10 andell, it being understood that a nipple is provided in the vicinity of each end of each section.

12 are interiorly threaded flanged collars adapted to be screwed onto th 8 respectively of adjacent nipples as is clearly illustrated in Figures l and 4 of the. drawing in order to connect the respective sections 1 together. 13 and 14 are respectively the water return pipes, the usual valve 15.

16 are legs provided with socket-like upper ends 17 adapted to receive the lower ends of the end sections, on the Hoor of the room.

radiator constructed according to my invention will be exceedingly easy to assemble and moreover can be varied in size to `suit the different structed of aluminum it will be very light in weight and moreover, by the use of nipples and collars, water or` steam ti ht joints between the sections can be rea 'ly made without the use at I claim as my invention is:

1. A radiator comprising a pluralit of pipe 13 provided with the drawn metal tube sections formed to s ape and their ends pinched in towards each other and welded together, each radiator 95 section being provided with registering orifices in its side walls in the vicinity of the top and bottom thereof, nipples inserted into each section with their opposed threaded ends protrudingthrough the ad ices, and collars threaded onto the adjacent ends of adjacent nipples for holding the sections in spacedrelation to each other.

2. A radiatorfcomprising a pluralit of drawn metal tube sections formed to s ape 105 and their ends pinched in towards each other and welded together, each radiator section eng provided Wlth registering orifices in its protruding latere ends 7 and 70 or steam inlet and outlet l said legs resting requirements. If conof gaskets :or packing. I

jacent oriside Walls in the Vicinity of the top and boted collars screwed onto adjacent ends of ad- 10 torn thereof, nipples having enlarged central jacent nipples for holding the sections in portions with orifices extending from the inspaced relation to each other.
